Harry Potter, Lord Voldemort, and the Importance of Resilience by Emily
Harry Potter, Lord Voldemort, and the Importance of Resilience by Emily Anderson A thesis presented to the Honors College of Middle Tennessee State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for graduation from the University Honors College Spring 2017 Harry Potter and the Importance of Resilience by Emily Anderson APPROVED: ____________________________ Dr. Martha Hixon, Department of English Dr. Maria Bachman, Chair, Department of English __________________________ Dr. Teresa Davis, Department of Psychology ___________________________ Dr. Philip E. Phillips, Associate Dean University Honors College ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank Dr. Hixon for her knowledge and endless support of this thesis even when finishing seemed impossible. I would also like to thank my family for the countless hours spent listening to the importance of resilience in Harry Potter and for always being there to edit, comment on, and support this thesis. i ABSTRACT Literature and psychology inadvertently go hand in hand. Authors create characters that are relatable and seem real. This thesis discusses the connection between psychology and literature in relation to the Harry Potter series. This thesis focuses on the importance of resilience or lack thereof in the protagonist, Harry, and the antagonist Voldemort. Specifically, it addresses resilience as a significant difference between the two. In order to support such claims, I will be using Erik Erikson’s Theory of Psycho-Social Development to analyze the struggles and outcomes of both Harry and Voldemort in relation to resilience and focus on the importance of strong, supportive relationships as a defining factor in the development of resilience. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS……………………………………………………………......i ABSTRACT……………………………………………………………………………….ii CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION ......................................................................................

FIC -Reconstructing the Ministry of Magic After the Battle of Hogwarts
2021 I Fictional Committee I Agenda 1 Research Report Fictional Committee 1 I Reconstructing the ministry of magic after the Battle of Hogwarts MIS MUN 2021 Drafted by Savera Shah 1 2021 I Fictional Committee I Agenda 1 Table of Contents Table of Contents 2 Introduction 3 Definition of Key Terms 4 Current State of Affairs 6 Stances of Characters 7 Possible Solutions 8 Questions to Consider 9 Bibliography 10 2 2021 I Fictional Committee I Agenda 1 Introduction The Ministry of Magic or M.o.M. was the primary governing body representative of the magical community in Harry Potter. Their main goal was the preservation of law regarding magic. Furthermore, the Ministry of Magic keeps Muggles from finding out about the culture of magical folk. Essentially, the Ministry is a complicated and highly inefficient bureaucracy. Their headquarters are in London and are made up of various Departments. Boards, Committees, and Offices, all of whom enforce the regulations and rules of laws. The Ministry tackles different aspects such as commerce, transportation, magical creatures, sport, and international relations. Within the ministry, there are numerous law enforcement agencies. Their roles are to maintain order, impose laws and rules, manage security breaches, and operate Azkaban (prison for magical criminals). Besides this, the Ministry also maintains groups of Hit-police who protect the wizarding world and deal with criminals. The Wizengamot, High Wizard Court, is a governing body that serves as the ultimate judge of justice for the wizarding world. The ministry unites the British government to the world of witchcraft. Every prime minister of Britain is visited by the Minister for Magic.

A Fiction-Based Religion Within the Harry Potter Fandom
Religions 2014, 5, 219–267; doi:10.3390/rel5010219 OPEN ACCESS religions ISSN 2077-1444 www.mdpi.com/journal/religions Article ‘Snapewives’ and ‘Snapeism’: A Fiction-Based Religion within the Harry Potter Fandom Zoe Alderton Independent scholar; E-Mail: [email protected] Received: 18 December 2013; in revised form: 6 February 2014 / Accepted: 11 February 2014 / Published: 3 March 2014 Abstract: The book and film franchise of Harry Potter has inspired a monumental fandom community with a veracious output of fanfiction and general musings on the text and the vivid universe contained therein. A significant portion of these texts deal with Professor Severus Snape, the stern Potions Master with ambiguous ethics and loyalties. This paper explores a small community of Snape fans who have gone beyond a narrative retelling of the character as constrained by the work of Joanne Katherine Rowling. The ‘Snapewives’ or ‘Snapists’ are women who channel Snape, are engaged in romantic relationships with him, and see him as a vital guide for their daily lives. In this context, Snape is viewed as more than a mere fictional creation. He is seen as a being that extends beyond the Harry Potter texts with Rowling perceived as a flawed interpreter of his supra-textual essence. While a Snape religion may be seen as the extreme end of the Harry Potter fandom, I argue that religions of this nature are not uncommon, unreasonable, or unprecedented. Popular films are a mechanism for communal bonding, individual identity building, and often contain their own metaphysical discourses. Here, I plan to outline the manner in which these elements resolve within extreme Snape fandom so as to propose a nuanced model for the analysis of fandom-inspired religion without the use of unwarranted veracity claims.

Universal's Islands of Adventure®
PAGE 1 1-DAY P ARK PLAN Universal’s Islands of Adventure® Harry Potter™ fans and families with teenagers will love Universal’s Islands of Adventure®. There are an abundance of thrill rides, including serious coasters in Incredible Hulk Coaster® and Dragon Challenge™, and the incredibly well- done The Amazing Adventures of Spider-Man®. For families with younger children, there is still plenty to see and experience within the park, especially the water rides Dudley Do-Right’s Ripsaw Falls® and Popeye & Bluto’s Bilge Rat Barges®. For toddlers, Seuss Landing™ is a Dr. Seuss book come to life in color and landscape, with the very best play area of any theme park we’ve encountered in If I Ran the Zoo™, and a number of tot-friendly attractions. Universal’s Islands of Adventure typically opens about half an hour ahead of the official opening, and we recommend you take advantage of this by arriving at least 45 minutes ahead of time. You’ll begin your journey inside the Port of Entry® and then hop around the various “islands” scattered about the lagoon. We recommend staying on-site at one of the Universal Orlando® Resort hotels and begin your journey in The Wizarding World of Harry Potter - Hogsmeade™, since it’s easily the most crowded area of Universal’s Islands of Adventure®. Potter fans will want to spend time soaking up the magic, having the perfect wand claim them at Ollivanders™, sampling a cauldron cake at Honeydukes™ or enjoying a pint of Butterbeer™ at Three Broomsticks™. Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey™ is the park’s headliner, a spectacular journey in which guests board an “enchanted bench” that takes them on a flight through Hogwarts™ castle and beyond.
